Despre acest conținut

Considered to be one of the most reliable and trouble-free EMUs of the Mk3 family, the Class 321 is a popular commuter train operated by a number of companies across the UK, and now available for Train Simulator in First Capital Connect livery.

Based on the British Rail Mk3 body shape, the Class 321 EMU was originally built for the Network Southeast sector by BREL York between 1998 and 1991. Three sub-classes were built, the 321/3 and 321/4 for Network Southeast, and the 321/9 for services around the Leeds area.

In total, 117 four-car train sets were built with a top speed of 100mph (161km/h), powered by AC 25kV overhead electric via a pantograph fitted to the PMSO vehicle. The design of these train sets was also considered so successful that it led to the development of the similar Class 320 and Class 322.

Following privatization of the British rail network, the Class 321s were transferred to a number of operators, including London Midland, Greater Anglia, Northern Rail and First Capital Connect; 13 remain in traffic with FCC.

The Class 321 EMU for Train Simulator is available in First Capital Connect livery and features passenger view, cab and instrument lighting, and a full four-car consist, comprising of DTCO, PMSO, TSO and DTSO passenger vehicles.

The locomotive is also Quick Drive compatible, giving you the freedom to drive the First Capital Connect Class 321 on any Quick Drive enabled route for Train Simulator, such as those available through Steam. Also included are scenarios specifically for the East Coast Main Line London-Peterborough route (available separately and required to play these scenarios).

There are many flaws with this train.The sounds are appauling. Clearly they have been rushed and fail to sound like any train in real life let alone the class 321. This is the only add-on where I have had to buy the Armstrong Powerhouse Sound Pack because the DTG version sounds attrocious.The outside appearance is OK. I find the proportions are wrong, the sides are not slanted enough and the level of detail is just not worthy of a £12 add on.Interior: Utter rubbish. Either nobody went inside the real train and so it is imaginary or the camera used to take the photographs of the interior to then put into the game was damaged in a way that changed the look of the pictures on it. Don't press 5 or your will utter many curses. The description reads "features passenger view" but what they forget to add is that it fails to represent anything meanigful.So to sum up: The sound, interior and exterior fail to reach any standards of authenticity, userbility or value for money. The price of £12 (minus 1p) is a joke and under no circumstances should you buy this product at full price (or in the sale for all the reasons outlined above) unless you have money to waste and if you do have money to waste, don't buy this as it shows Dovetail Games that the product is good when it is far from it. I spent about £4 on it during a sale and even then it does not repesrent value for money. Really and truly do not buy this DLC. It is an utter joke on every level and at best could be described as a poor effort and at worst a complete rip off and money grabbing move by the makers. If you really want a realisitc class 321, go to Aromstrong Powerhouse. It is well worth the £15 (minus 1p) and is a real pleasure to drive. I hope that this discourages you from buying this DLC as it is a waste of money and time. Also, if you get it for free in your inventory, it is as welcome as the U2 album being automatically downloaded onto your iDevice.
